| What are the best links you all know of that show media bias? |
|
My freeper-wanna-be friend calls CNN Communist News Network, and says they are wildly liberal.
Thanks, Gina

If this person thinks CNN is "communist" and Media Matters is socialist, you won't be able to find anything to dent his Armor of Wilful Ignorance.
FAIR is good though.

| 5. 2 years ago, during a 3 hr 'discussion |
|
out on our deck I gave him enough cognitive dissonance to make him lose his support for * 3 mo's later. He no longer supports him, in fact thinks he is an idiot. He admits that * convinced him of the WMD's and danger. He is a very B/W thinker, and has little creativity, he will never vote Dem's because they are "socialist" and corrupt...but he won't vote this year at all.
He was the best man at our wedding, and I would like to see things inprove.

How conservative talking heads, especially Bill O'Reilly, can call MM "socialist" and "Goebbels Mao Ze Dong nazi propaganda stuff" when all they do is print transcripts of the stupid things people say. Print quotes, link to direct sources. They don't even do commentary.

Make 'em watch this documentary
If they can't see it after watching that, the only thing that would work is an ice pick in the forehead.

Critical of both sides so it might be a little more credible to him.
